- Reed Kuhn is a Silicon Valley entrepreneur, and strategy and analytics consultant. He is the author of “Fightnomics: The Hidden Numbers and Science in Mixed Martial Arts,” the first book to quantify drivers and performance metrics in combat sports.
It’s the final week of the UFC’s campout at the APEX training center before they take a break and set a new camp on Fight Island, which is located on Yas Island in Abu Dhabi.
The card will feature a lot of relatively fresh faces, but it will offer two top-5 lightweight veterans in the main event. The result could determine who is on deck for a title shot once the current interim-title situation gets sorted out.
Prelims begin at 5 p.m. ET on ESPN/ESPN+, and the main card starts at 8 p.m. ET on ESPN/ESPN+.

Lightweight main event: No. 3 Dustin Poirier (-185) vs. No. 5 Dan Hooker (+165)
